Broncos QB Chad Kelly has been working out with former Giants QB Phil Simms in advance of his first NFL season.

Last year's Mr. Irrelevant, Kelly missed his rookie season with wrist and knee injuries. He was declared fully health following the year. A favorite of Rookie Scouting Portfolio's Matt Waldman coming out of Ole Miss, Kelly showed NFL-caliber tools in college but struggled with off-field issues and health. As Trevor Siemian is limited and Paxton Lynch continues to look like a bust, Kelly is arguable the most talented quarterback on Denver's current roster. Kelly is the nephew and godson of Hall of Fame QB Jim Kelly. Feb 21 - 8:34 PM

Kelly spent all of 2017 on NFI but looks to be close to fully recovered. He's over a year removed from ACL surgery and expected to be cleared to throw at OTAs. After taking a late-round injury flyer on Kelly, the Broncos will get to see what they have in him this offseason. Feb 9 - 7:20 PM

Kelly is a year removed from tearing his right ACL. He underwent wrist surgery in the spring. He will try to earn the Broncos' No. 3 quarterback job next summer. Mon, Nov 6, 2017 04:12:00 PM

Broncos QB Chad Kelly (wrist/knee, NFI) is expected to miss the rest of the season.

This falls in line with previous reports. Even with Trevor Siemian benched, the Broncos will give Kelly a year to recover from multiple surgeries. Kelly should be fully healthy for the 2018 offseason. Sat, Nov 4, 2017 05:00:00 PM

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports the Broncos are expected to make Trevor Siemian available for trade this offseason.

Denver would be lucky to get anything more than a conditional sixth- or seventh-rounder, especially in what looks to be a loaded -- for its standards -- quarterback market via draft and free agency this year. Siemian has starting experience, sure, but he completely bombed out last season and is also recovering from left shoulder (non-throwing) surgery. Denver is going to overhaul its QB room.

Taylor was thought to need surgery on both hips, but he is only expected to need one side repaired. He will likely still be brought back as an exclusive rights free agent, but he could end up missing the entire offseason program. Taylor caught 13 passes for 142 yards this season.
